I've been in 110-120 multiple times on the lake. I have lived in some horribly hot environments (Arizona and Nevada).

Fished a Media Indi about 13 years ago. I had 5 20 oz. dasanis and I finished the last one on my way to weigh in. Thats 120 ounces of water and I was thirsty going home. It was 106 and no wind. I was boat #141. I got fourth though. Its funny you dont notice how hot it is when your catching fish! That aint much water, Friday on Tenkiller in Oklahoma me and my partner ran out of waters at noon, and we had probably packed 14.

I might add that some of the biggest fish I ever caught at Fork was from Noon til 6 pm in July & Aug. Got one of my PBs at the time, 11.61 at Fork in Little Mustang at 12:30 pm on a jig in Aug right by the bridge when the hydrilla came out to the edge of the creek. That's funny, I caught an 11.65 off that same spot in the late 80's, but I was night fishing. Blk/blue Larew Hog Craw with glass rattles in it. Could have been the same fish. I released her an hour after Scott Wishart weighed her at Lunker Lodge. It was Aug '85.

I remember one day on Purtis. It was about 110 by 3:30. I was up near the creek channel and island. I was catching some good fish but the lake got slick and the temp got tough. My head started to spin a little bit. So I peeled off the cap, shirt and shoes and took the plunge.
Swam around for a while and laid out on a PFD. When I got back in the boat a south breeze started to blow. Felt like AC.
I fished the rest of the day and enjoyed it.
